All it takes is 10 minutes...

Modern life is extremely busy. Research studies show that indigenous cultures and even busy animals like ants and bees take long periods of time to "do nothing", time to connect, to regenerate, to be still. This is an important prerequisite to find balance and well-BEing, to "function well" and cope with life's challenges and joys, to be happy. Our children know this - but what they see around them (stressed parents, busy kindergarten/school/uni/after-school timetables, overwhelmed teachers, constant pressure to be better-higher-faster in a growth-oriented society) quite often tells them a different story. ​Check out the resources below and the book Dance into an Inner Light, which is designed to help them connect with a place of stillness within and with their inner source of power and balance.

Cultivating Self-Worth with Words

The bookSleepy Magic and the Gold-Light-Project from Danielle Wright is all about "empowering kids (and grown ups) to connect with their self-worth. Because if you’ve got self-worth, you’ve got everything you need to change the world." This book can be a starting point for parents to establish a balancing bed-time routine, helping them to help their child(ren) to wind down, calm their minds, connect to themselves and learn how to enjoy an easy transition into dreamland. ​If you enjoyed Danielle's book and "want more", you will find a variety of balancing and self-centring techniques here.
